Today was heavy again! A lot of rehearsals which started at 9. We practiced until 12.30 and went straight into lunch. After lunch we met in the lobby to visit the Europa Park. It was a lot of fun! We got to walk in the parade and everyone was waving at us, so sweet :). Since I have 2 big performances next week I asked if I could go back to the room and rest because my body was aching pretty bad from all the walking and the heels. Luckily they were nice enough to allow me to go back to the room to have a powernap. At 6 we had dinner and from 7 till 9.30 rehearsals again. The show really came together today, so tomorrow it’s only repeating over and over again. My feet are so sore now, but only one more day to go! X

Early this morning I flew to Germany to represent the Netherlands at the Miss WM (Weltmeistershaft – World Championships) beauty pageant. Just as the real soccer world cup, I have to compete against Chile, Australia and Spain. After I landed, I got picked up by the organisation and we drove to Europa Park in Rust, which took an hour. Since I was the last one to arrive and there was a press moment as soon as I got to the park, I immediately had to change into my countries soccer outfit and we made some pics with the press. After we went to the bump-cars (?) and shot some pictures there.
Later we made some pics with the girls from Europe and after it was finally time to have lunch. I didnt eat for like 8 hours since my breakfast back home so by this time my headache was killing me. After lunch we quickly prepared for a business outfit shooting and straight after that swimsuit. Hope I can show you the official pictures later! After swimsuit we had a lovely dinner and went straight into rehearsals for 3 hours. Now I am completely exhausted and gonna take a nice warm shower and have some well deserved rest! See You tomorrow! X

This weekend is all about packing everything for the Miss Intercontinental final in Germany. I will leave tomorrow morning, the final will be December 14th and I will be home December 16th in the afternoon. I suck at packing, I always want to bring way too much, but I have to look my best every day. Big thanks to my sponsors: Pierot, Jaimie’s Aalsmeer, Angelic Bruids en Avondmode, Runwayvibe, Josh V, Marcelle Markus (bikini), Deja-Vu Airbrush Tanning and everyone who helped me preparing and collecting everything! I can’t wait to show them all what I’ve got and what I have to offer. Wish me luck!

I never hosted before, but when it was time for the semi finals of Topmodel of the World I got asked to host the evening together with Renou Zulfiqar. Renou will be passing her titel thtough to one of the 18 girls who are now finalists of the competition. I didn’t know what to expect, because I never hosted something before but it went pretty well and I got a nice compliment from someone in the audience. It was also a good training for when I will be in Germany for the big final of Miss Intercontinental. The event took place in De Tuin in Rotterdam and a lot of people came to see our beautiful contestants walk down the runway. There was a cocktail/introduction round, bikini and red/moulin rouge round. The girls did very well and I am so proud of them! This is what I was wearing and looked like! // Ik had nog nooit iets gepresenteerd, maar toen het tijd was voor de halve finale van Topmodel of the World vroeg Renou Zulfiqar mij om de avond samen te presenteren. Renou zal haar titel overdragen aan 1 van de 18 overgebleven finalisten van de competitie. Ik wist niet wat ik kon verwachten, maar het ging heel goed en ik kreeg nog een mooi compliment van iemand uit het publiek. Ook was het voor mij een goede training voor als ik straks in Duitsland zit voor de grote finale van Miss Intercontinental. Het evenement vond plaats in De Tuin in Rotterdam en er waren veel mensen komen kijken hoe de meiden over de catwalk liepen. Er was een cocktail/voorstel ronde, bikini en een rode/moulin rouge ronde. De meiden deden het heel erg goed en ik ben super trots op ze! Dit was wat ik droeg en hoe ik er uit zag!

Earlier I showed you the dresses for Miss Intercontinental that didnt make the cut. Here is a sneak peak from 1 of the two dresses I chose to wear. It’s a very pretty blue with lace, rhinestones and tule. Do you like it so far?

Last friday I went to Enschede, to Angelic Bruids en Avondmode to try on dresses and decide which ones to bring to Germany for the Miss Intercontinental final. The family that runs the shop is so sweet. They know a lot about pageants and new exactly which dresses I should try on. The dresses were all amazing, it was really hard to choose. In the end I choose two dresses which they were going to adjust to my body and add more sparkles. These are the dresses I did NOT choose. I won’t show you the ones that made the cut yet, but I promise you, they are jaw-dropping-gorgeous! Which one of these do you like the best? // Afgelopen vrijdag ging ik naar Enschede, naar Angelic Bruids en Avondmode om jurken aan te passen en uit te kiezen voor de Miss Intercontinental finale in Duitsland. De familie die de winkel runt is echt super lief. Ze weten veel van missverkiezingen af en wisten precies welke jurken ik aan moest passen. Ze waren allemaal prachtig en het was heel moeilijk om te kiezen. Uiteindelijk koos ik er twee welke ze nog aan gingen passen aan mijn lichaam en meer gingen blingen. Dit zijn de jurken die ik NIET koos. Ik zal de twee die ik gekozen heb nog niet laten zien, maar ik beloof je, ze zijn werkelijk prachtig! Welke van deze vind jij het mooist?
